1. Search the forum. You can do this from the Advanced Search Page or from our Google Custom Search, which will search the entire PKP site. If you are encountering an error, we especially recommend searching the forum for said error.

2. Check the FAQ to see if your question or error has already been resolved.

3. Post a question, but please, only after trying the above two solutions. If it's a workflow or usability question you should probably post to the OJS Editorial Support and Discussion subforum; if you have a development question, try the OJS Development subforum.

Your question mostly relates to mod_rewrite and the problem very likely relates to a change in server platform. Are you sure the server supports mod_rewrite? If you remove those rules, does the installation return to working (without, of course, the short URLs)?

I don't think your new server is reading your mod_rewrite configuration directives. This could be as simple as using .htaccess directives when they're not supported by your Apache configuration. If you're administering the server, check your mod_rewrite configuration in your Apache config file; if you're not, then you'll need to ask your administrator whether and how this is supported. Unfortunately it's outside the realm of OJS configuration, and quite server-dependent, so I don't think we're going to be able to help you here.
